Emanate / Crenellate by Trouble (Sam Hillmer and Laura Paris) is a one-night, sculptural and interactive multi-channel video installation for site-specific performance. The environment will be inhabited by a host of esteemed experimentalists, with the audience roaming free rather than seated. Restructuring habits of assembly has been the thematic driver of Trouble’s two-decade career; Emanate / Crenellate continues that work into digital space.

Trouble (2006-present) is the collaborative identity of Sam Hillmer and Laura Paris who live and work in New York City. Their conceptual and polysensory practice spans installation, sculpture, performance, video, new media and social practice. Trouble’s work focuses on boundaries between social ritual and art.

Intricate life size maze sculptures are central to Trouble’s practice. Sprawling and complex in nature, these multimedia maze installations experiment with space and audience experience, testing the capacity of maze structure to interrupt habits of assembly. Site specific performance programs curated by Trouble are presented inside each of Trouble’s maze installations. Trouble has garnered attention for the visceral audience response to their maze designs: fostering temporary loss of agency by inhibiting audience mobility, Trouble’s maze work provokes psychic states that hover between ecstatic and exasperated.
